I recommend the Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Trailer Tire # AM10130. This is a radial tire with a speed rating of 81 MPH. The radial tire is much better suited for highway travel as that sounds like what you are using the trailer for. It is a load range D tire with a load capacity of 1,220lbs per tire and fits 12" x 4" wheels. When mounted this tire is 21.3" tall and has a width of 5.7". You will want to ensure that this will fit with the fenders on your motorcycle trailer.
You can get it as a tire and wheel package with your 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern with the Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Tire w/ 12" White Spoke Wheel # AM31199DX. This will make a for a great spare but you can also order them if your current wheels are damaged.
